Here's what my computer said about your workaround: user@comp:~$ sudo aptitude search ~ilinux-image i linux-image-3.5.0-28-generic - Linux kernel image for version 3.5.0 on 64 i linux-image-3.8.0-23-generic - Linux kernel image for version 3.8.0 on 64 i linux-image-3.8.0-25-generic - Linux kernel image for version 3.8.0 on 64 i linux-image-3.8.0-26-generic - Linux kernel image for version 3.8.0 on 64 i linux-image-3.8.0-27-generic - Linux kernel image for version 3.8.0 on 64 i linux-image-extra-3.5.0-28-gene - Linux kernel image for version 3.5.0 on 64 i linux-image-extra-3.8.0-25-gene - Linux kernel image for version 3.8.0 on 64 i linux-image-extra-3.8.0-26-gene - Linux kernel image for version 3.8.0 on 64 i linux-image-extra-3.8.0-27-gene - Linux kernel image for version 3.8.0 on 64 i linux-image-generic - Generic Linux kernel image user@comp:~$ sudo apt-get autoremove linux-image-3.5.0-23-generic Reading package lists...
